How do you not know that you’d get caught?

Ah yes. “Progressive”. The use of that word nowadays brings me out in hives. I imagine anything can seem ‘progressive’ if you are utterly clueless as to which direction you are facing when you take a step forward.

I’ll drink a consoling glass of something good tonight in the spirit of solidarity with you ;)

English. It was a fine language in its day.

Ha! That’s a new one for me! I like it :)

I wish they wouldn’t call themselves “anarchists”, it’s as insulting as democrats calling themselves “liberals”.

I saw a schoolbook the other day that defined “decimate” as “to destroy a large portion of.”

Let’s face it, words don’t mean anything anymore. I also have a hard time coming to grips with the fact that rock-throwing nihilist/communists have taken over the word “anarchist,” but then “gay” used to mean “happy” and “make love” used to mean “courtship.”

“Anarchist” apparently now means its polar opposite, “communist.”

For the two people left who care what words mean, a political anarchist believes in absolute personal responsibility – obviously these pasty retards don’t believe in that.

But I guess it’s over now, what with “Libertarian” having morphed into “creepy conspiracy theorist” and “progressive” meaning “wanting to stop progress and make people live in tents and grow their own food.”

All it took was some cop wryly describing a couple of fleet-footed border fugitives as “anarchist types” to get them Pajamas (media) all in a wad: OmigodOmigodOmigod the anarchists Omigod they’re out there Omigod and they’re gonna get us Omigawwwww…

Go to any anti-war rally, and you’ll find anarchists…along with other far-left extremists.

Has anyone seen 12 Monkey’s?
Is Mueller on to something here?

Yeah Boom, I’ve seen it, and I had the same thought, but the connection is actually pretty weak. The idiot kids in the movie claimed responsibility for letting the animals out of the zoo, declaring “We did it!” What made it significant in the film was that it coincided with the beginning of a biological armageddon, and subsequent efforts to find the start/cause of the plague were largely derailed by focusing on the animal anarchists lunatic statements, which had nothing to do with the plague. (Mostly)

But yeah, it clicked right away that it appears that these idiots were imitating Brad Pitt in the movie, who spent most of his time there in an insane asylum… You just can’t make this stuff up.

They’re all pasty white, scrawny, rich boy college kids buying meth with daddy’s credit card.

When they find the perps, he’ll squeal like a little piggy on all of his fellow twerps. They should be all rounded up and given the maximum sentence in Rikers.

No country club for these punks. Let them do hard time with the Crips and the Bloods and we’ll see just how revolutionary they feel when they get out, or if they’ll even be able to walk at that point.

I’m currently safe from these people…in Iraq.

I’m beginning to think that you are in a safer place ;-)

Thanks for your service buddy!

Anarchists? Manifestos? Or just plain nutcases?

I’ll give 4 to 1 odds they’re registered Democrats.

He said “watch that movie, and you’ll see what I mean”.
Personally, I’ve never seen it.

Thanks for the links, I wasn’t up to speed on the Mexican consulate connection.

I’m guessing a cowardly anarchist copy-cat in a Berkeley-inspired Code-Pink frame of mind.

Anarchists, Manifestos or just plain nutcases?

I vote for all three along with criminals, terrorists and thugs.

While the group tends to use (pardon the oxymoron) aggressive passive resistance in their protests, they do threaten public safety. Is it possible that Critical Mass members have some lone-wolf imitators who have taken anarchy a step beyond?

Describing such events in Portland, Oregon, an Internet commenter observed: “The City refuses to enforce any traffic laws againt Critical Mass, a group of bicycle-mounted anarchists who monthly terrorize a selected part of downtown, piling their bikes in a heap in the middle of an intersection to shut it down, and occasionally using a “rolling demonstration” to try to paralyze the entire downtown district.”

“These events are remarkably similar,” Kelly told reporters. He said the devices used in both events were similar, the incidents happened about the same time of day and that in both cases a man on was seen riding away on a bicycle.
